Annual Raffle

Every year at our Haunted Hike in October, we sponsor a fun raffle. Local businesses and individuals regularly contribute and friends and members win all sorts of great prizes — from nights out on the town to amazing artwork. Check out our 2026 prizes below! THANKS so much to our generous donors! (Updated 10-14-26)

If you would like to buy tickets now ($5 each, 5/$20, or 10/$40) you can use our QR code below (to pay by credit card or Apple Pay), or use the QR code or cash or check at the event on the 16th. (Note RAFFLE concluded as of 10-16-26.) Need not be present to win so you can use the QR code today to contribute! Each category has multiple chances to win. If you use the QR code, you must email us at info@nearbynature.org by Friday at 1 pm and let us know which categories you would like us to put your tickets in!

This year’s raffle will benefit our ECO (Every Child Outside) Fund. This fund provides up to $10,000 in scholarship assistance to families and schools every year!
